their reports, suspended until such report is

our policy to act harshy in this matter but many OF
the Camps were behind last quarter and again
this. so 1t Is necessary to adopt such measures
viii induce them to send in reports or we will
have TO drop them permanently from our list.
Captains and Aids will that First Sergeants and
Quartermaster- -Sergeants make out and send In
their reports promptly at the end Of the quarter.
All Camps being IN arreaFage at the end Of the
fourth quarter, the commissions for officers Of soh
camps viii not issue until such reports are made.
The per capita tax is l25 cents for each member In
good standing at the end of the quarter. Members
who are SIX months in arrearage not entitled to
vote in the election of officers, and Captains should
see that this rule is enforced in all cases. Camps
may equip themselves as either infantry cavalry,
and when so equipped may wear the regulation
white field shoulderstrap of the u. 5. Army; but
when so equipped must wear the regulation 8. OF
" miniature rank strap upon the collar of the coat.
During the past quarter death has removed from
Camp No. 35 Brother Lieut.. Henry Reisker and
Camp Councilman III. III. Cramer. The sympathy
of the Division is extended TO this Camp and 10 the
families of our departed brethren. Since General
Orders. No. 2, was issued we have organized five
new Camps viz: Nos So 81, 81, 63 and 81 and 65 is
directed to General Orders No. 2 of Commander
